Education Minister Chan Chun Sing has called on industry leaders to collaborate with institutes of higher learning and continuing education providers here to help design their curricula and act as adjunct faculty.
Such a move would allow businesses to influence the next generation of talent, and let these institutions tap their technology when training students.
There needs to be a "tight nexus" between industry and academia, who can work together to "produce the workers of tomorrow ahead of time", Mr Chan said on May 6.
He added that this would help address concerns by businesses that graduating students here do not have the skill sets relevant to industry.
Some institutions here have already made efforts to work more closely with industry in such a manner.
